django-group-user-permissions 0.0.2

A Django package for managing user permissions and groups.

DJANGO GROUP_USER_PERMISSIONS

🔍 Overview

This package was developed because Django REST Framework (DRF) does not provide a built-in solution to check both user-level and group-level permissions in one place.

django-group-user-permissions is a custom DRF permission class that combines permissions assigned directly to a user and those inherited from the user’s groups. It simplifies permission handling in DRF-based APIs by dynamically checking permissions based on the request method and the model associated with the view.
